Project 4

Energy savings

Join Ubaldo to think about ways to save electrical energy and create an automatic lighting system.

Computational thinking

Ubaldo designed a prototype of intelligent lighting that allows lights to turn on only when there is a person in the area. Additionally, he created an animated simulation to demonstrate how it would work. To program it, he used events and costumes.

Maker moment

Let's build an automatic lighting!

It’s time to create our own automatic lighting system! To do this, we will use the light sensor and the white LED.

Components

These are the components that are used in the project, learn how they work.

Let's program!

Access the Robots platform to program your automatic lighting system. In the first challenge we will program the LED to automatically turn on and off, in the second challenge we will adjust the brightness based on the light level.
